a sense a theme of 'everyone losing, but not really' going to happen to all factions

I HAVE A VISION

calling it now, some warp bullshit pushes the nids out and away but a splinter fleet gets 'stranded' in our galaxy

necrons dont wake up and/or the flayer virus fucks shit up and most of the crons/tomb worlds are effectively useless

orks get caught in a daemonic push that wipes a bunch of them but stems the daemon tide so both factions are also effectively in reduced fighting strength.

siege of terra 2: electic boogaloo ends with terra mostly intact, imperium sundered, chaos fucked up, eldar did fuck all but will be shoe horned in EVERYWHERE.

the timeline freezes at 1 second to midnight with all the forces shattered and on the back foot and the eye expanding and the emperor reborn. The story ends with all the factions trying to regroup to prepare for

WARHAMMER 40,000 AGE OF THE EMPEROR
A Wargame set after the Time of Ending of the 41 Millennium. Factions strive to survive and piece back together their ways of life. Look forward to exciting new Citadel Miniature range and a more streamlined method of gameplay to enjoy more games with your friends!

Pretty much. There won't be an Age of the Emperor, though. We're essentially just going to be stuck in End Time mode for the foreseeable future. There's no reason to Sigmarize 40k when it's still making money Jew claw over curled Jew claw.

I hope IA14 lets these glorious bastards through mostly intact, and the Vulturax. I need more beep boops.

Also hoping that the Admech actually get to use some of their toys in future campaigns rather than showing up to CADIA with a bunch of shitty normal Skitarii. Where's the Ordinatii Minoris, the Ordo Reductor warfleets, the Speranza's little brothers, the Cult Mech, even?

"Listbuilder is still shit" edition, seeking non shitpost response.

The non-drop pod Sternguard join the Inquisitor and ride up in the Chimera. Classic Chimera (Listbuilder DOESN'T support Inquisition, only IA, so I couldn't list the 5-fire-point one). Acolytes help protect the psykana division, which spends the game summoning daemons. Everything else is pretty self explanatory. Vanguard Vets in the Stormraven, remove kebab all over. The one place I'm really lacking still is anti-AV14 (besides the Stormraven, knight sword, and thunder hammers); any suggestions to shore that up?

it's not ITC legal, my local community vehemently hates ITC so that isn't a concern

GW... please... stop... it's not too late...

What's a nice little allied necron force that can fit in most armies?

I was thinking a cryptek in a scythe with a troops choice seems nice, can fly in and be bulky and mostly ignore any negativity effects of being Bad friends with the main detachment

Any Cron players have any suggestions?

>>51396690
In 30k. Go over there

>>51396911
Thank god. AoS this boitch up

>>51396676

Everyone assumes they won't Sigmarize 40K because 40K makes a pile of dosh for GW.

But what seems to be missed is that when GW pulled the plug on Fantasy and remade it into AoS, their profits on the Fantasy/AoS range skyrocketed.

It is very easy to image corporate executives sitting there and thinking that exactly the same thing would happen if they did the same to 40K.

And for all we know, they're right.

>>51396640

If they actually do go for Age of the Emperor, there's an obvious climax to the whole thing.

>Abba-dabba-do's Black Crusade reaches Terra
>Unbelievably huge battle results
>Abby Road breaks into Throne room
>Plunges his claw right into Emps
>Moment of silence
>Emperor reborn
>Psychic flames engulf all of Terra, burning away heretics and Daemons
>Entire Crusade destroyed
>Tyranids blown the fuck off course
>Astronomincon burns a thousand times brighter, illuminating new pathways through the Warp, allowing faster and safer travel
>Humanity given one last, desperate hope of survival

Basically no matter how much the other factions rise up/conquer, this more or less resets things, and gives them a chance to make an Emperor mini.

That'd work. If you're not adverse to special characters, Szeras with a squad of immortals in a scythe would be a good fit. Otherwise, there's a few formations to choose from if you wanted more power out of it.

I play both types of Admech. Just wondering where the fuck they all are. Agripinaa sent one of the largest Skitarii armies in the galaxy to help, not one in their colours? I would expect the Reductor to be all over this shit, too.

>>51396935

I would hope a corporate executive is smart enough to realize you can't replicate the same percentage gains on something as high selling as 40k compared to something as low selling as AoS.

If they had $1 for WHFB sales, turning that $1 into $100 with AoS is great. But you're not going to turn 40K's $10,000 into $1,000,000 by AoS-ifying it.

Oxymoron.

>>51396977

Honestly though, why not? Why wouldn't drastically simplifying the ruleset and bringing out some new minis based around new fluff not increase sales?

There's an element of Devil's Advocate here (I'm not sure I actually want them to do this, even though as an Ork player I have no attachment to the current ruleset). But it's by no means certain that AoSing 40K would result in it going down the toilet. There's very real evidence that the exact opposite would happen.

>>51397024

Not the anon you were responding to but, I like my overly complex rule system.

>>51396998
Because the special-est of snowflake chapters needs super special snowflake weapons made of chunks of literal special snowflakes.

>>51397010
I have no idea what the rules for any of those are and the "TS are shit" thing I've also only ever seen in these generals but free upgrades can never be wrong.

>>51397024

Because AoS still hasn't outsold 40k.

I'm ok with some complexity, but I feel it's gotten out of hand at this point.

>>51397059

Well we don't know what is and isn't outselling anything, apart from AoS being more successful than Fantasy.

But that in itself means nothing in the context of the discussion. GW looking at what AoS did for their Fantasy profits could easily conclude that they could replicate that with 40K.

>>51397041
Plus it's not even that complicated.
It's just so. Fucking. Dense.
You should not need to reference 3 or 4 books to make your army, and to check your weapons rules, and to explain your formations, and have fucking armies that are still 'totally legal!!!1!- love GW' that are designed (often badly) for the last edition.

>Well we don't know what is and isn't outselling anything

Maybe you don't. Some of us are smart enough to know how to view their public investors' reports and how to interpret financial statements.

>>51397024
Well Fantasy had the problem of current 40k bloat for bloat sake and armies that where outright broken. With games ending because your wizard die or you didn't bring a wizard.

Rules incompetence, making smaller sets but requiring higher model counts.

They are making the same mistakes of fantasy with 40k. The only saving grace of it. It's huge size and popularity. Wonder how long can shills alone support it.

>>51397121

>>51397121
I mean they make threads every now and then specifically shitposting about this subject so no

>>51397066

40k still sells and 7th edition is good. They released several new factions last year.

>>51397090

A streamlining wouldn't be bad. Having not actually played a game of AoS I can't speak for if it really does improve the experience or not.

40k seems larger than fantasy ever was so it seems to cut it down in rules terms would be more difficult.

>>51397121
No, you need to realize tho that even when fantasy still existed they hated the 40k crowd. I'm frankly happy to see those holier than thou faggots laid low, they never gave a fuck about 40k and now they just wanna bitch because our version of warhammer is and always will be superior

>>51397116
I was actually thinking of the retarded Legion of the Damned 6th edition supplement (which included a warning IN THE FUCKING BOOK) that using it exclusively would result in a first turn tabling; and their weak ass cope out in the Imperial Agents book that revealed how GW didn't have the stones to just say "yes, these old shit tier codices (MT, Inquisition, SoB, etc) are out of date and replaced by rules in this book. Get over it"

AP3 Bolter, Aura of Dark Glory(5++), Sorcerer with Force Stave that is ML 1 but has to take Tzeentch. They are Fearless, Slow and Purposeful, Veterans and have to take Mark of Tzeentch.

Each Rubricae costs 23 points. They can pay 7pts swap out their AP3 bolter to for S4 AP 4 flamer that give enemies FNP on passed T tests, or pay 25 points for S5AP3 Heavy 4 Rending canon, if you have 9 dudes.

That means that you pay more than 250 points for ten guys and Soulreaper canon.

GW made it very clear even before this that Chaos would be fucking up realspace. Blowing up Cadia proves they are doing exactly that.

Newcomer here.
I want to run small games like 750-1000 points and Kill Team.
Is Start Collecting + Armoured Assault a decent way to start an army or should I double the SC box of my choose?
Also which faction among Space Wolves, Tau, Tyranids and Necrons would benefits the most from setting up an army this way?

>>51397290
in fairness you do need to thin your paints

>>51397316
I'm not seeing how it would be, other than nerfing the usefulness of heavy weapons. Plus a lot of weapons outside the imperium don't even need to reload.

>>51397253
there was something similar in 2nd, rapidfiring weapons like heavy bolters and assault cannons could jam and did not fire next turn because they had to be unjammed.

except the assault cannon. that one could blow up
some things require a lot of bookkeeping especially if you thinkabout how many heavy bolters there can be (thats why the edition came with 2.5trees worth of paper markers. Do not want to go there again)

>>51397010
Add the following to the Thousand Sons detachment benefits, and make it so that Blessing of Tzeentch procs if a psyker in the unit casts a spell-
>Tutelaries- All psykers in a Thousand Sons detachment may reroll failed attempts to harness Warp Charge. All dice must be rerolled.

War Cabal grants Preferred Enemy for Oracular Guidance instead of re-roll 1's to Hit.

Tzeentch's Firestorm inflicts a S: 9 AP:2 hit on the model under the Blast Templates hole, otherwise it's S: 4 AP: 3. Siphon Magic lets the user cast an additional Witchfire spell that turn AND that spell can be the same as a Witchfire spell already cast that turn. Gaze of Magnus gets a note put on it that it can only be used once per turn (or not, it's absurdly WC intensive).

Aspiring Sorcerer is replaced with a regular Sorcerer with Aura of Dark Glory who just lacks Independent Character. He can buy additional Mastery Levels as usual. Cost of the unit remains the same. Warpflamers gain Torrent (I'd rather make them free, but no point changes).

Scarab Occult Sorcerer can buy an additional ML. Scarab Occult are armed with the Prosperine Khopesh (S: +1 AP: 3 Rending). Hellfyre Missile Launcher goes to AP:2 , Soulreaper Cannon gains Shred.

Regular Sorcerers have access to Divination and Telekinesis.

>>51397291
Summoning isn't exactly a reliable option for me. I play frequently against Skyhammer spam/other drop pod "fun" that'll ensure the Psykana doesn't make it past turn 2, or if it does, the Commissars making them usable won't. The Knight is solid but more easily tarpitted than I'd like for a reliable AV platform, and a single lascannon is not going to kill a Land Raider or 5 Russes. Vanguards are a single squad and, see above: 5 tanks.

I'm not as concerned about high volume of fire as I normally would be, lots of power armor except the Guard guys. But trusting my anti tank to "don't get tarpitted, don't let them roll any hits at all on flak armor bodies, and make one shot a turn" isn't really my idea of reliable.

Maybe I'm asking too much. Maybe "you'll see riptides/skyhammer grav/if we ever get an eldar player, a Wraithknight" is getting to me. My other list is more "reasonable". I mentioned in the last thread that I only added the Knight because I have it and never use it; otherwise I'd have an Armored Task Force in its place.

>>51397389
Have you heard of a place called the Octavius system, anon..?

>>51397375
>doubt you will get to fire that short range flamers more then once

So that's a no? I mean, the combi flamers are just as short, and if they're drop podding in they're going to be close anyway.

>some things require a lot of bookkeeping especially if you thinkabout how many heavy bolters there can be (thats why the edition came with 2.5trees worth of paper markers. Do not want to go there again)
I guess I've always thought of 40k in the same breath as other wargames and rpgs - the idea of playing 40k with more complex rules or even a version where it isn't competitive and has a GM just seems I dunno
Something about 40k being a game where there is no hidden information kinda get to me a bit

>>51397010
Here's the rewrite I am working on. The only thing that potentially has me concerned is 5++ Cultists being really annoying but other than that I feel this is far more internally balanced, with less emphasis on Magnus and more on the Thousand Sons themselves. I did what I could to avoid adding "new units" while taking some previous suggestions and toning down certain stuff. I might add Possessed as an option for the Metamorphic Mob and just give everything in it Bestial Fury. It's an interesting thought either way.

>>51397489
I'm guessing the lack of proper frost blade models in the past forced people to just use power swords and axes, and GW probably wants the axes to stand out from plain chainaxes and power axes, so they got that chiseled look to them.

Wonder what those axes would look like painted obsidian and given to, say, Salamanders.

How about swapping Primaris for something like WC 1 Blessing that gives you Ignore Cover(maybe toss in +1 BS for S&P units)?

The Sternguard start outside the Chimera and embark turn 1. Our boards have enough cover this is reasonably safe to do, though risky dor an advantage-seized Skyhammer. As far as the extra die, yeah, I should probably do that.

Chapter's Red Hunters. Best fit by far for Inquisition, and on-call Hatred or Skyfire is nice, if limited.

Don't you fucking start.

I'm enjoying talking about the game for a change.

>>51397508

Ghaz showed up, killed all the Orks on Octavius, nearly died to a Mawloc, then was refortifying the place when more Nids showed up. Unless the updated version of the Ghaz supplement has advanced this, that's where we're currently at.

>>51397168
Eh, I think it's more like those games have shit lore and models.

>>51397567
Rather than replace it, I'd just give them two Primaris powers. Eldar already get to derp around with multiple modes per power, and Tzeentch/Thousand Sons are all about their psykers.

I'd rather not see even more widespread access to Ignores Cover. Maybe something more like an Auspex/Omnispex.

>>51397617

orks grow until they die or get beaten.

im not sure if they can keep growing after a loss. maybe if they win again?

>>51397641
Red Hunters are the chapter devoted to Inquisitorial service (not to be confused with Minotaurs, who are the High Lords' pawns). Gameplay-wise, it's armywide Adamantium Will, and once per game they can give turn-nunber units Hatred, Counterattack, Interceptor, Skyfire, or one of two other rules I don't know off hand.

They're sorta like Deathwatch with less training and larger scale. One or two companies deployed at Vraks in the final siege.

>>51397585
Thou wroth. Perhaps a simpler idea instead of the Mutilators/Obliterators would be to let 2 models for every 5 form a Heavy Weapon Team?

>>51397567
>Primaris for something like WC 1 Blessing that gives you Ignore Cover

Fuck no. That's a shitty idea.

It just makes the weapons that already ignore all but the best armour now ignore cover.

Big problem with Rubrics and TS in general is similar to DW, PAGKs, etc.

They're 20+ pt models for something that's as durable as a 13pt CSM.

Personally I'd rather the Thousand Son bonus lets them roll their Armour/Cover Save and if they fail it, they can try their invulnerable save (so they get their 3+ save and if they fail they can try on a 4++)

Boom. Rubrics are now more durable. Is that enough? Who knows

>>51397667
I was thinking of the red hunters :p - those are the siege of vraks guys right?

>>51397647
When that tendril splits off its going to have hard time fighting anything thats not ork tier of stupid with technology.

All Orks get bigger the more they fight. Theoretically there's no limit to this, but Orks tend to die frequently.

>>51397717
Hence ridiculous bastards like the Orkoid warriors of Ullanor

>>51397647
Well Ghaz teleported right into a battle where Nids were about to gain the upper hand, his Bully Boyz took chunks out of this force and Ghaz was swallowed my a Mawloc that he then proceeded to kill single handedly.

Then he set up about putting his generals in charge of the ragtag bunch on Octavius before fucking off to have a prophetic vision.

During this time the Orks on Octavius knowingly let the nids gather resources to duplicate because they had such a great fight they wanted to do it all again.

Well funny you should mention that, because at the end of the Ghaz supplement, it reveals that Orkimedes has nearly perfected a Tellyporta that will let Ghazghkull move between Octavius and Armageddon in the blink of an eye.

And the Beast series reveals that Armageddon is actually Ullanor, the homeworld of the Beast.

Something tells me this is all going to come together when the Orks get their Triumverate of Ghaz, Grotnsik and Orkimedes.

>Oh there used to be models: ragnar blackmane had one.

Yes, permanently fixed to him. There wasn't one you could put on any one of your models, like what you get with the recent SW upgrade sprue. I don't think any of the SW sprues has ever come with an actual frost blade. There's various swords, axes and chainswords, but no proper frost blade beyond Ragnar and the recent SW upgrade sprue.

So no wonder everyone just uses a power sword.

You've got to do reverse lighting when it comes to lava.

Tervigons summon:

On average. That being said, summoning 12 and then 11 the first two turns, while your opponent shoots your Hormagaunts and leaves your Termagants, isn't all that out there.

You should get around 30 to be safe I think. It depends on how aggressive you are with your other Termagants. If you are more defensive you might need 40 or even 50 to be safe.

Lava doesn't get hot enough to have "white" heat in it, so it would look very unnatural.

You just want three colours like Flash Gitz Yellow, Troll Slayer Orange, and Mephiston Red for outside.

Look at reference material if you're stuck.

Pay particular attention to where the yellow should be placed like the picture.

So the issue is that my cracking is random. So I can't really pick out which cracks will be bigger than others and will stand out more. So it all sort of looks the same under the cracks but doesn't 'pop' how I'm wanting it to. Also I'm running out of test bases that are of a decent size lol.

>>51398012
Yeah, it's because they stop summoning. You could end up getting 15 each turn with both of them for a whole game, but that isn't very likely. It should also be noted that Tervigons are usually fairly juicy targets, which is why YMMW with the longevity of Tervigons based on your opponents.

If you were wondering (which you were not) what would happen if they instead stopped summoning when they rolled 12 or more it would be:
>11
>6
>4
>2
I was wondering if there was a way to design the rule so you couldn't end up with the punishing roll of summoning less than 10 Termagants on the first turn but still being unable to poop out more babies.

Cad, droppod frag cannons, if you want allies take dreadknights

I guess that settles that. Dark Eldar are "Drukhari".

If the Cadians got fuck all in the book about Cadia, do you REALLY think the MT are going to get stuff in the Elf book?

>>51398538
I know people pay thousands for models, but $30,000 for a single model that size is too far.

I hope.

You need to think with GW logic anon, stare into the abyss and the answers will become clear

>>51398589
well depending on how bullshit his stats would be, he'd basically replace any army and mean instant win

and i don't doubt for a second GW would pull that off if the sales die out a bit

I know that feeling so bad - I've taken to trying to do conversions so my plasma gunner don't all look retarded, pointing out in the distance

>>51398617
That I could maybe see. It would probably be the lowest they'd ever sunk, but maybe.

>>51398605
Yeah, they basically just sigmarized "Druchii". Works for me.

>>51398611
I'm seeing....Detachments with SoB, but no new models.....Combined Eldar detachments that buff CWE far more than DE so everyone sticks with CWE.

I don't like thinking like GW anon, please don't ask me to again.

>>51398621
Except Eldar players will laugh if you use those shitty imperial designations, tell you the stars have lived amfd died at the commamd of the Eldar race since before you crawled onto the land and then table you with wraithknights

>>51398644
A gold coated model at that price would be pretty cool actually.

>>51398614
The FAQ fucked Deathwatch. Simply because GW doesn't understand how their own game works.

>>51398672
And then I'll laugh at them for getting so worked up over their fictitious plastic toys.

it'll be just painted plastic.

Which part? I honestly don't know which bit you're referring to

Nah. I COULD easily see a £200-300 model though. That said, their Primarchs are only £60-70.

Only if you take something that can't be fit into that transport, so Librarians in PA are in the clear. I'm thing about 4 Aquila Teams, each with a Psyker with an Auspex. Arm each with a 4/5 of a specific weapon with a specific mission and deep strike them in drop pods.

would it make any sense for a genestealer cult to be supported by a mawloc? or a tervigon?

Leman Russ Eradicator in a Genestealer Cult army. Heavy Bolters or Heavy Flamers? I reckon its too slow for Flamers, but BS3.

Not sure what you saw, but there is some really good mdf scenery out there.
In any case they are a cheap and easy way to get started. Add some details or texture paint and you can usually get some really nice sturdy scenery out of them.

>>51398792
Well, if they are there, then the cult is about to get nom'd, but they are AoC so they are pretty much designed to be taken together some of the time.

>>51398602
Im gonna have 3 in my command squad. Im thinking Ill have one pointing, one with a laspistol, and one... I don't know.

>gimmie a break I'm not some /wip/ expert here
Hey, I wasn't talking down to you or anything, just trying to help.
In any case all you need for a conversion like that is a knife and some plastic glue, which you should have anyway if you built the models.
If you don't have extra bits for the plasma guns you can get them cheap from ebay or even buy the GW bitspack with plasma guns.
In a pinch you can even convert plasmaguns yourself from pistols.
L-R: chaos plasma pistol+catachan flamer; cadian lasrifle+regular plasma pistol and two stock plasma rifles from the chaos and loyalist marine range for comparison.

>>51398288
Battle cannon 100%
>two pie plates
>ordnance so it will destroy vehicles anyways
The other option is only better for targeting 2+ armour targets

It works fine for non-ruined modern/scifi buildings. And it's a lot cheaper to make and ship which keeps costs down.

Ghazhgkull is the Orks' Abbadon, failed so many times at doing the thing he wants to do that even if he succeeds, he is forever tainted by the previous failures.

And Yarrick is totally going to come out and kick his shit in with his custom Baneblade That now gets his stands back up on a 4+ rule

Aun'shi, shadowsun and farsight are all in resin and will undoubtably vital to the plot as they are the only important characters for the tau.

>>51398535
No, flames are hotter (brighter) at the ends and darker in the middle

>>51398955
Except that Abaddon never failed.

Ghaz only failed once in the first war of Armageddon. He has plenty pf victories against the Tau to the Tyranids.
